As a 1024x400 98543A topcat, according to dmesg.

The code in topcat.c treats the 400 height as being a 98543A. I think I just need to force the width to 512 to have it do the right thing; the number of bytes per row appears to be correct, since text does show up line-by-line without any gaps.

Of course, if anyone has a 98545A or 98547A that they want to sell, I’m quite interested. :)
